  • Power and Punishment at Exeter

    This episode examines documented methods of punishment used at the Exeter School - later known as the Ladd School - in early 20th century Rhode Island. Drawing from archival incident reports, we explore forms of discipline ranging from forced labor and isolation to corporal punishment and psychological humiliation. Based on original research from the Ladd School Historical Society and Archives.
